Of course, as far as their management they, like all large banks, are an absolute disgrace. But their technology is solid — best ATMs, best on-line banking, etc.

There’s far more innovation (and shenanigans, to be fair) in the small ones than the large ones. OTOH, I and other more well known writers have been asking the base question: what purpose is served the polity by “innovation” in financial services. Except for for some Right WingNuts (who might have an agenda), the conclusion is None. So, even if “innovation” were desirable in FS, you won’t get it from the elephants. How about a public credit union? Here in New England, such are fairly common and didn’t get involved in “innovation” are remain stable.
